The Ferris wheel was one of the main attractions and became a cult symbol of both the Pripyat city and the Chernobyl accident. By the way, according to an unofficial version, the Ferris wheel worked the next day after the accident. Thus, the authorities tried to divert and hide from the locals information about the explosion at the power station, which makes this place even more tragic.
